I have to admit, it was incredible to see this building at the World Expo in Shanghai—it’s the Singapore pavilion, and it was clearly designed using either Max & Greeble or one of the Greeble clones out there!  The architects won a competition to get the design used for the Expo.

Amazing that you can basically create a couple of cylinders, taper them and apply a Greeble modifier and win a competition.

I mean, take a close look at the “Widgets” on this thing—The one-, two- and three-block units and the Tees are all there, plus the panel tapers match those in Greeble.  They didn’t even try to hide it!  Talk about lazy!

And people thought Greeble was only for spaceships…

And the building also doubles as a climbing wall too.
Face it, someone is going to be tempted by that after a few Singapore slings.

I really don’t like the design of the building; looks kind of cheesy.
